The Winery

A. Prunotto

The diversity of the vineyards of Prunotto ranges from your classic styled Dolcette d’Alba and Nebbiolo, to grappas made from Barbera d’Asti Costamiole. The vineyard sites are located throughout the Langhe and Monferrato, with vineyards separated into Bussia, Bric Turot, Costamiole, Mompertone and Bricco Colma. The winery as a whole is scientifically driven, focused on studying, researching, and experimenting with each vintage. Thus they adapt to the year and what it brings without a pre-set structure, which allows for huge potential with each vintage.

Tasting Notes

WA96
From one of the most celebrated vineyards in Monforte d’Alba, the 2009 Barolo Bussia shows a tad more color and concentration upon first inspection. As expected, it also follows through with bigger aromas of dried cherry, spice and dark licorice, but nothing is out of place. It never abandons its promise of understated elegance. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2028.
JS94
This smells like top Burgundy with light earth, flowers and berries. Full body, with ultra-fine tannins and a beautiful palate of subtle yet intense fruits and a long, long finish. Wonderful finish. Best ever from here? Try this in 2016.
